Qlik Sense app duplicator 2.0 released

Qlik Sense app duplicator 2.0 released

On the surface everything looks the same.

Under the hood everything has changed.

The 2.0 release of the Qlik Sense app duplicator is a major update. Most code has been refactored.

The most notable changes are:

  • Switched to using Enigma.js for talking to the Sense engine, instead of the previously used Qsocks library. Enigma is open source just like Qsocks, but the former is supported and actively developed by Qlik themselves – that is really important.
  • Much improved logging.
  • A nasty bug has been fixed.
    The app duplicator would fail semi-silently when multiple app duplication requests were sent to it simultaneously. No more of that – the duplicator now handles also high-load scenarios gracefully, and have been battle-tested in hands-on sessions when many developers created their own apps from templates at the same time. Nice.The 2.0 version is available on GitHub, as always.
